CIRCLE
Presented by the Senior Class of
Abbot Academy, Andover, Massachusetts
DEDICATED
to
MISS ADELE D. BOCKSTEDT
Because she entered Abbot with our class and
as our advisor has never been too busy to give us
clear advice and good counsel; because of her
lively spirit and ever-readiness to please us and
encourage us; because of the sympathy and
understanding with which she has treated all
our problems, we, the Class of 1953, proudly
dedicate this book to Miss Bockstedt.
MISS HEARSEY
Miss Hearsey is an important part of our life
at Abbot. From our "new-girl" days when we
first hear her inspiring prayers and talks in
chapel, to the time when we learn that she is the
best person to help solve our problems, we love
and admire her for her devotion and sincere
interest in every one of us. Through poetry
classes, Sunday suppers at Sunset and those
wonderful days at Intervale, we know her as the
special friend of the seniors.
Counsellor, guide and, above all, our friend -
this is why we sing,
'Miss Hearsey, to you, our hearts belong."

Prayer
Almighty God,
We pray for the vision and awareness of thy
presence and awareness of the presence that may
break the chains of fear and misconception
which confine our hearts. We know that we must
accept that power which is greater than our-
selves before we can conquer the things we fear.
For there is a mightier force than fear — a
mightier power than hate — a thing which is
love, hope, understanding - - and is called the
Will of God.
Help us to open our hearts to thy command-
ments - - and we shall acquire that freedom
above all freedoms - - that peace beyond ex-
pression .
Let this lie our challenge: to conquer the
tempests within our hearts; to vanquish the
motives of wrong; to follow thy path of goodness
and truth.

Pages from the Diary
"I arrived in Grand Central from Sain
City, Iowa, and idled up to the informa-
tion booth and asked Marti/ Schneider
where to find a cab. I hailed a shiny, new
orange one and a few minutes later walked
into the Hotel Astor, where I found Elaine
Audi and Dee Bethell standing at the desk
trying to persuade the clerk, Tim Cogan,
to buy Dee's latest novel. Curious, as I
always am, I entered the ladies' room and
found Nat Starr in a white uniform, pick-
ing up bobby-pins. Getting back into the
cab, I asked the driver to turn on the
radio. The melodious voice of Janet Bow-
den came over the air announcing Rafa's
Mambo Band playing a special request
for the two exotic dancers — Catalina
Gomez and Ann Zuill. The program was
interrupted to bring a flash from Boston
- Dee Pettit had been banned — again -
for her revealing dances at the Old How-
ard. The flash was interrupted to an-
nounce that Audie Taylor had just fin-
ished cutting up her fiftieth cadaver and
found that it had two hearts! The cab
stopped for a red light and in a television
store window, I saw a new, life-sized set
tuned to the twenty-four-hour comedy
show, "Life with Betty." The cab con-
tinued uptown and, as we passed Carnegie
Hall, I saw Andy Stevenson, violin in
place, and Mary Owl, piano under her
arm, come sedately out. A large poster
was outside announcing Muffle Gross, the
famous African explorer and heathen
converter giving illustrated lectures on
newly-discovered Umbagazuland. From
February 17-24, the attraction seemed to
be the Talbot Brothers, featuring Ellen
Smith as guest trumpet soloist. The post-
ers had been hand-painted by Meddle
Goodnow, eccentric Bohemian artist who
is, at present, starving in a garret in
Greenwich Village.
Red lights being rather numerous, I
had one of My Boys hop out for a news-
paper and a couple of magazines. He soon
came back and I saw, screaming in the
headlines, "WORLD-FAMOUS DOG-
TOR, CORNELIA NYCE, INVENTS
SUBSTITUTE FOR BLOOD!" Then
my attention was drawn to an article on
Helen Marvell, headmistress of Choate,
who had just been presented with a
Caddy-Allard by her appreciative pupils.
Turning the page, I saw an announcement
of the birth of Ann Kennedy's fifth child,
whom she had named Em. By this time,
we had gotten to Central Park. I saw
some familiar figures, so I got out of the
cab. There, sitting on an anthill, was Toni
Gerald having a serious discussion with
Timmie Hekma, who was most consider-
ately feeding the birds. They were dis-
cussing their old classmates and told me
some very interesting bits of gossip. First
of all, there was the time when Mary
Williams was seen going north on a south-
bound subway. I must say I was rather
surprised to hear that Carol Hardin just
defeated Polly Jackson to win the Wom-
en's World Wrestling Championship.
They also told me that Nancy Bailey is
enjoying a very successful career as house-
mother at Princeton. I was digesting this
news when up popped Sally Swayne
wheeling ten baby carriages filled with
most of her children. She told us that she
had almost been run over by Dottie Giles,
who is at present chauffeur for the Secre-
tary-General of the U.N. She had just
been having tea with Dee Sclioon maker,
Mrs. America 1J)68, and Helen Glidden,
who was rather tired after having spent
40
of Sam Aritan
FEBRUARY % 1968
all morning modeling bathing suits at the
Motor Boat Show.
I hopped back into the cab and we
headed for Radio City. Double attraction
at the Music Hall — Maryse Besso as a
swan in "Swan Lake" and Ruth Sidon
and Mary Scandura, who have com-
pletely displaced Dean Martin and Jerry
Lewis.
I passed the skating rink and there was
Patty Earhart shoveling off the ice. I
turned around and bumped smack into
Bev Berkey, who said she was carrying on
a thriving business as a street -corner
photographer. She had just snapped
Julie Gaines, better known as the presi-
dent of the Lonely Hearts Club, with her
old roommate, Muffie Grant, who has
gained renown as a Whiffenpoofess. They
told me that they had just seen Ann
Clark coming out of Madame Patricia
EveletK's School for Deportment, having
just completed her two-hundred-nine-
teenth successful improvement course. I
got back in the cab and, as we went
whizzing downtown, I picked up a maga-
zine. The first thing I saw was an ad for
Breck shampoo, posed for by Tish Miller,
of all people. On the same page with this
ad was an article by Judy Wilcox entitled,
" How to Be One of the Ten Best -Dressed
Women in the U. S." and one by Nancy
Smedley explaining the reason for her new
rocket service between Andover and
Exeter.
One of My Boys got hungry, so we
stopped off for a minute at an Automat.
Blocking the entrance was Judy Pinkham
collecting money for the Salvation Army.
We finally got inside, and there was Pam
Bushnell waiting on tables. She was deep
in conversation with Bunty Benedict who
had spent the last nine months going
around the world in a bottle. We were
sitting munching on chicken sandwiches
when in walked our friend Libby Hollister,
chief lense cleaner on Mount Palomar,
with Eva Stern, stock-car tester at the
Indianapolis Speedway. Over in a corner
we noticed Ann Stoddard keeping in
training for her job as fat woman in the
circus by consuming her fifth double
banana split. On the way out we bumped
into Barbara Schroedel, star of the current
Broadway hit — "Let Your Hair Down. "
Trying to get back into the cab, our way
was blocked by Connie Weldon, head of
Baby Sitters' Union, Local Number 17,
standing on a soap box screaming for
better wages. Once safely back in the cab,
I was startled by hearing Marta Horsefield
in a singing commercial for Grandma's
Lye Soap. The program was a lecture on
hair-styling by Carol Burton. We finally
pulled up in front of Macy's. There, hold-
ing a big basket, was Janie Wilson shout-
ing for Bundles for Bermuda. Nancy
Edmonds, just returned from installing
sun-lamps in igloos in Alaska, was giving
Janie the coat off her back. Looking into
Macy's window, who should I see but Sue
Martin testing mattresses. She looked
extremely comfortable and, seeing as I
had no place to spend the night, I decided
to accept her hospitality. I went back to
the cab to pay the fare and collect My
Boys. The patient cab-driver turned
around and took off her sunglasses and
cap and, much to my amazement, I saw
that it was Ollie who had so kindly taken
me on my tour of New York. Well,
Boys, it certainly is a small world!"

Preps
Of course we're the youngest, bounciest
class we're the Preps, - - the lowest of
low called nieasley "Preps" by our
upperclassinen, hut having fuu with the
best supply of food, comics and our par-
ents' deposit money. Our rooms, clothes
and furniture have now known what it's
like to belong to a Prep. With "more
bounce to the ounce'' we happily make
our way through Abbot, putting strain
and stress on Abbey and the teachers.
Here are some expressions that circu-
late through the Pre]) class:
"Tally-ho, slippers down the dust
shoot. "
"Throw these away? You're kidding -
Fve only got five runs in them. "
Blind dates: "If at first you don't suc-
ceed, try. try again."
"Do you know that her bed is sagging
in the middle?"
"Whoops, the handle came off the
shower!"
And now the most important corridor
veil of all. "FOOD!"

Government
This year the Student Council
has tried to clarify in our indivi-
dual thinking the various stand-
ards of conduct constituting a
responsible and well-rounded citi-
zen and to stimulate similar think-
ing in the entire student body.
As a result of our interpretation
of these standards of conduct
based on the desired qualities of
character, the Citation and Honor
systems have been revised.
It is our sincerest hope that the
student body has profited from
this new presentation of the Stu-
dent Government.

Association
'Who can separate his faith
from his actions or his belief from
his occupation?"
The Prophet by Kahil Gibran
Through this year's problems
and pleasures we have sought to
unite the faith of an ideal with the
truth of reality — a goal unattain-
able in a year. We would like
therefore to leave, not an accom-
plishment, but an idea kindled in
each of us and awaiting only the
sparks that will bring it to flame.

Courant
The advertisement for Courant
asked what it is - - ves, and what
is it? This, our magazine, is a col-
lection of the literary efforts of the
school. "Our" magazine because
as publication date draws near and
tempers wear thin we begin to
realize how much we have put into
it, not only in written material but
in interest and effort; and more
important how much we have
gotten out of the work. Yet it is
your magazine because it is put
together for you and with your
help. This is essentially Courant.
Our staff this year has been
Helen Marvell, Connie Weldon,
Dee Bethell, Elaine Audi, Meddie
Goodnow, Dee Schoonmaker, Bee
Gramkow, Pat Eveleth, Corny
Nyce, Lucy Garretson, Nat Starr,
and Audrey Synnott.
The Circle
'Yearbook 7th period" reads
the sign every Friday on the black-
board. During these meetings,
brains were racked, and hair was
torn; but under Mrs. Reeves'
constant but patient guidance, all
our problems were solved. Dee and
Timmie aided by Meddie and
Helen spent their time doodling
while Bunty and Sue attempted to
balance the budget. Throughout
the year Bev and Granny furiously
snapped pictures. Our millions of
ideas were finallv sorted out and
written up by Janey, Sally, Carol,
Marty, Judy, and Janet; and from
the chaos came Nancy's constant
reminder; "The deadline's com-

Abbot Athletics
In order to become a member of
a team this year, each girl was
expected to write a song or cheer,
later to be used by her team. The
cheers were worked out with ori-
ginal motions, led by the cheer-
leaders and used by the teams on
our spirited field days. Besides our
regular sports there were innum-
erable walks that could be taken
at leisure, which, along with pos-
ture awards, built up individual
points towards class numerals, the
Athletic "A", chevrons, and fin-
allv the white blazer.

Listen you Gargoyles and von shall hear
The historv of a fabulous year.
In nineteen hundred and fifty-three
We Gargoyles will march to victory-
Our sportsmanship is nothing new.
With Mufrie leading and Lister, too.
We'll raise our rackets, sticks, and glove
To show that there are none above
The Gargoyles! Winter. Fall, and
Spring.
So praises to the Green we'll sing;
And as we play on every field
We'll he striving for the shield.
So Griffins, guard your strong Marine,
And watch out for our "Listerine."

Once there lived on Gnomeland
a jolly soldier. A shock of black
hair framed his tubby face. He
wore a white shirt stamped, "Ma-
rine Corps. "
One day while bravely fighting a
herd of giraffes, he fell — down,
down through space. As he fell he
became immortal,
changed to cotton,
rags, but his spirit,
burst the strange cloth prison, and
scattered Gnomedust around the
world, enshrining a chosen few.
And although some never knew
'til years later — Gus had dubbed
them Griffins.
His heart
his mind to
like magic.
[59
Sports at
After our teams were chosen and
the anticipated day of initiation
had passed, we all joined together
for a wonderful year of sports. Our
hockey season proved to be ex-
tremely exciting with the spirit
high between the Gargoyles and
Griffins. Each game was fought to
the end by the players spurred on
by their faithful teammates. Bas-
ketball and tennis proved equally
thrilling, and the season was cli-
maxed by an energetic fall Field
Day.
Too soon winter came, forcing
us inside for a different kind of
exercise. Many of us made like

a Glance
monkeys on the gym bars, while
others tried to curb their waist-
lines bv strenuous exercises with
Miss Peddle. Unfortunately, ex-
cept for a few snow flurries, our
skiis remained in their racks all
winter.
With warm days, along came
opportunities to run off our excess
energy on the lacrosse fields, tennis
courts, or baseball diamond. And
then, all too soon, came final Field
Day and the long-awaited chapel
where we learned which team was
victorious. As we now think back,
this vear has been full of enthus-
iasm and fun for each and everv
one of us.
